Chapter 185 Sad to Cry
Chapter 185 Sad to Cry
After get off work, Jiang Man hurried to the kindergarten to pick up Xuanxuan, but learned that Xuanxuan had already been taken away.
The person who took Xuanxuan away was Su Heng.
She rubbed her temples, thinking that what she feared would come true.
She took a taxi to Mingcheng Apartment, stood in front of Su Heng's door and knocked gently.
"Who is it?" Xuanxuan's childish voice came from inside the door.
Hearing this voice, Jiang Man breathed a sigh of relief, "Xuanxuan, it's mom."
"Mom!" The voice from inside the door was full of surprise, and Xuanxuan jumped over to open the door.
Jiang Man thought she would see Xuanxuan jumping around, but unexpectedly, Xuanxuan appeared in front of her limping.
"What's going on?" She widened her eyes in surprise and squatted down to check Xuanxuan's knee wrapped in gauze.
"It's okay." Xuanxuan kicked his injured leg and hugged Jiang Man affectionately. "I accidentally fell during the sports meeting today." He pouting.
"Why are you so careless?" Jiang Man said with a hint of blame.
Xuanxuan laughed happily, "Mom, let me tell you, I didn't cry even though I fell down today. The teacher even praised me!" He looked very proud.
Jiang Man frowned with heartache, "Xuanxuan is great." she praised.
"Mom, you have to thank Uncle Su very much. He came to school as soon as the teacher called him today. I heard from Teacher Chen that he has a meeting this afternoon."
Jiang Man's face froze. He didn't expect that he canceled the meeting for this reason.
She looked up at Su Heng who was standing not far away, with his arms folded across his chest.
She picked up Xuanxuan and said uncomfortably, "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Su Heng responded indifferently.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, and Jiang Man forced a smile, "Su Heng, I'll take my son home first." After saying that, without waiting for his response, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Su Heng narrowed his eyes, his gaze deep and unfathomable.
"Stop." He called out to her.
Jiang Man paused, clenched his teeth, and didn't dare to look back at him, "Su Heng, is there anything else?"
"Did I let you go?" Su Heng walked up to her.
"I'm very grateful for your help." Jiang Man was about to say something when he was interrupted by Su Heng, "Xuanxuan, your mother and I have something to talk about."
Xuanxuan nodded obediently. Although he was still young and didn't understand much, he still felt that his mother was in a bad mood these days.
Su Heng took Xuanxuan from her arms. At first, Jiang Man was reluctant to let go, but when she looked up, she met Su Heng's gaze. She had no choice but to let go.
Su Heng carried Xuanxuan upstairs. After going downstairs, Jiang Man was still standing there, motionless.
"Is this the attitude you should have towards your boss?" he asked coldly.
Jiang Man pursed his lips tightly, turned around, and lowered his eyes slightly, "Su Heng, thank you for helping me take care of the child."
Her polite yet distant attitude made him feel unhappy.
"Jiang Man." He called softly and walked up to her. "Put away your disgusting attitude."
Jiang Man's fingers unconsciously clenched, and she raised her eyes, bravely looking him in the eye. "Then what attitude does Su Heng want me to show?"
"This is how you should treat me." He said in a hoarse voice with a hint of sarcasm.
These words seemed to touch Jiang Man's sensitive nerves. Her eyes turned slightly red and she tried to walk around him and go to the second floor.
"Where are you going?" Su Heng turned around and grabbed her hand, preventing her from leaving.
Jiang Man remained silent and tried his best to break free from Su Heng's tight grip, but it was in vain.
"What do you want?" Jiang Man's voice was choked with sobs. He turned his head away, not wanting him to see his vulnerable appearance.
Su Heng narrowed his eyes slightly. Her aggrieved look made him feel inexplicably uneasy.
"Don't cry," he warned sternly.
When Jiang Manyi heard his voice, she sniffed aggrievedly and said, "Su Heng, I want to go home, please let me go." Her voice was firm but polite.
"What if I say no?" Su Heng approached her. "This is your home." He stated calmly.
Jiang Man shuddered. What was going on? First a slap, then a sweet treat?
"Su Heng, what do you take me for?" She licked her dry lips, her eyes bloodshot.
"Do you want to know?"
Su Heng lowered his head and chuckled. The hoarse laughter made Jiang Man inexplicably scared.
Suddenly, the world spun around her and she was held tightly in Su Heng's arms. "What are you going to do?" She put her hands on his chest.
"I want you to know what I think of you." Su Heng's arms were like iron clamps, and no matter how Jiang Man struggled, it was useless.
He carried her into the bedroom and threw her on the bed without mercy.
Jiang Man's body kept curling up backwards. She spoke with difficulty, "What do you want to do?"
Su Heng looked at her like a frightened bird and reached out to unbutton the collar of his shirt. "What do you think I want to do?"
Jiang Man's breathing became rapid and she turned her head away, unwilling to look at him.
She jumped off the bed in a panic, but was pushed back by Su Heng as soon as her feet touched the ground.
He leaned closer to her, "Don't you want to know?"
"I don't want to know now." She was a little flustered and didn't dare to look him in the eyes.
"Jiang Man, what on earth are you thinking about?"
"You don't need to know." His words were inexplicably harsh. She lowered her head, not knowing where she got the courage from. "Have you said enough? Su Heng, I want to go home." She said this word by word, her eyes red, but she held back her tears.
Su Heng's jaw was tense, and her figure was clearly reflected in his black and white eyes.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Jiang Man hurriedly got out of bed.
She went upstairs and picked up Xuanxuan.
Xuanxuan still looked at her blankly, "Mom, where are we going?"
"go home."
Seeing his mother's worried look, Xuanxuan looked at Su Heng doubtfully, his eyes full of confusion, "Mom, don't go, I want Uncle Su to stay with us." He pouted and looked like a spoiled child.
"Xuanxuan, be good. Uncle Su is very busy and we can't disturb him." Jiang Man squatted down and touched Xuanxuan's head.
Throughout the whole process, Su Heng remained silent and watched the farce unfold coldly.
Jiang Man moved quickly. After leaving Mingcheng Apartment, he hailed a taxi and left.
Sitting in the car, her emotions were finally released and tears welled up in her eyes.
Xuanxuan was terrified when he saw this scene. He quickly wiped her tears with his little hands and said, "Mommy, don't cry. Mommy, don't cry."
Jiang Man sniffed, looked at Xuanxuan, and tried to calm himself down, "It's okay."
"Is it because Xuanxuan was naughty and made his mother angry?" Xuanxuan opened his big eyes, blinked, and said aggrievedly.
"No."
"Then why is mom crying?"
"Because mom feels sorry for Xuanxuan." Jiang Man hugged Xuanxuan tightly in her arms.
Xuanxuan nodded, not quite understanding, "Oh, Xuanxuan doesn't feel any pain." He chuckled, "Xuanxuan is a man."
"Well, Xuanxuan is a man."
